Dear Option holder,
Notice to Option holders – Renounceable Rights Issue
I am writing to you as a registered holder of options in Magnetite Mines Limited ACN 108 102 432 ( Company or Magnetite Mines ) (ASX: MGT) as at the date of this letter.
As announced to ASX on 3 September 2024, the Company is proposing to raise up to approximately $4.1 (before costs) by undertaking:
-
a renounceable pro-rata rights issue ( Rights Issue ) to eligible shareholders on the basis of 1 new share ( New Shares ) for every 5 shares held ( Rights ) as at the Record Date (defined below) at an issue price of $0.20 per New Share together with 1 attaching option ( Option ) for every 1 New Share subscribed for under the Rights Issue; and
-
an offer to Shareholders who subscribe for their full entitlement under the Rights Issue to subscribe for the shortfall to the Rights Issue, so that they will also be able to subscribe for additional shares in excess of their entitlement ( Shortfall Offer ),
(collectively the Offer ).
The Rights Issue is renounceable which means that the Rights will be tradeable on ASX and are otherwise transferable. Rights trading is expected to commence on ASX at 10.00am on 5 September 2024 and to cease at the close of trading on ASX on 18 September 2024.
The Offer is partially underwritten by Mahe Capital Pty Ltd ( Underwriter ) to the amount of $2 million, subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement to be entered into between the Company and the Underwriter.
The proceeds from the Rights Issue (net of costs) will be used to complete a binding transaction with strategic partners (JFE Shoji Australia Pty Ltd and potentially others) to secure DFS funding, to lodge the Project’s Mining Lease Proposal application with South Australia’s Department for Energy and Mining and to provide general working capital needed to continue operations.
Details of the Rights Issue and the Shortfall Offer are set out in a prospectus which was lodged with ASIC, and released to ASX, on 3 September 2024.
Why am I receiving this letter?
The purpose of this letter is to advise you of the upcoming Rights Issue and to advise you that as an option holder you cannot participate in the Rights Issue without first exercising some or all of your options , and becoming a registered holder of shares following that exercise, prior to the record date for the Rights Issue on 6 September 2024 ( Record Date ). If you do not wish to participate in the Rights Issue (in respect of your existing options) you do not need to take any action.

The Offer will not be made to any other shareholder ( Ineligible Shareholders ). Ineligible Shareholders will not be entitled to participate in the Offer.
Action you must take if you wish to participate in the Rights Issue
To be eligible to participate in the Rights Issue in respect of the shares to be issued on exercise of the options held by you, you must exercise the Company options you hold and be registered as the holder of the underlying Magnetite Mines shares before 7.00pm (Sydney time) on the Record Date, and have a registered address in Australia or New Zealand.
